Chapter 130 - Apprenticeship Program (1/2)
”Aren't you going to obey me?” Aiden asked when he did not get an answer from Anya.
Anya was very surprised to hear Aiden's tone cold again. She wanted to answer but instead choked on her food and coughed loudly.
Aiden reached out and patted her back lightly, ”Eat slowly. No one will take the food from you.”
”You ordered someone to help me. I'm very grateful to you, but I don't want to keep bothering you.” Anya said. She was annoyed that she couldn't do anything without Aiden's help. Plus, Aiden hid all this from her.
With that, all she did was receive help from Aiden. The man knew everything she did while she didn't know anything about Aiden.
Aiden looked at her with a smile and said nothing.
Finally, Anya could only channel her irritation to the food in front of her. She finished all the food and drink that Aiden brought. Then, she leaned back on the sofa and didn't want to move anymore because she was so full.
Aiden pulled out his cell phone and called someone, ”Get on upstairs. There is an assignment for you.”
”Is that Harris? You're going to tell him to send the perfume sample?” Anya immediately straightened her body.
”Hmm…” Aiden nodded.
Anya immediately stood up and wrapped her perfume sample, and wrote a note for Harris.
”Harris, sorry I bothered you again. Please give these two perfume samples to Mrs. Esther.” Anya handed over notes and perfume samples to Harris.
”I will send it to its destination. Madam, hurry home. Don't let Mr. Aiden wait too long.” Harris was very aware of Aiden's character. The man had no patience but today he decided to wait for Anya to come home from work.
Secretly, Anya glanced at Aiden and agreed with Harris's suggestion, ”I'll be home soon after this.”
”Sir, Mr. Abdi is already in the car. I will go to deliver this perfume sample first.” Harris then said goodbye to Aiden.
”You can rest after you deliver it.” Aiden said.
”Understood.” Harris nodded his head and immediately left the place.
After seeing Harris leave, Anya immediately entered the perfume room again and cleaned all the equipment she used. She returned it to its original place before locking the door and leaving.
When locking the door to the room, Anya realized that the key she was holding was new. It seemed that the locks on Esther's perfume room and office door had been replaced.
Anya gave the key to the office to Mila. Previously, the keys to the office on the second floor were also kept by the shop manager. And now, Mila's presence made Anya feel a little calmer because she was Aiden's trusted person.
Anya and Aiden immediately headed to the car after cleaning everything.
”Esther's office CCTV is connected to Harris's cell phone. What did you show Esther?” Aiden suddenly asked while they were in the car.
Anya's head immediately turned towards Aiden. She did not think that the CCTV was also being watched by him. Her memory returned to the time she was in the room and showed Esther her cell phone. At that time, her back turned to the CCTV camera and her cell phone screen was not visible. Apart from that, not the word 'marriage' came out of the mouths of the two of them.
Knowing all these facts, Anya casually replied, ”I showed her a photo of our house and told her that I live with you.”
Aiden raised an eyebrow. Even though he didn't see directly what was on Anya's cell phone's screen, he didn't believe Anya's lies. He knew what caused Esther to be shocked and immediately agreed to help Anya, ”I recall you have our wedding book photo on your cell phone.”
Anya felt very panicked when she heard that. She couldn't hide anything from Aiden. Would Aiden be angry again because she leaked their relationship in front of other people without his permission?
”That… I… I admit it. I showed the wedding book photo to Mrs. Esther.” Anya lowered her head, preparing herself to face Aiden's anger.
However, Aiden only reached out his hand to stroke Anya's head, ”I don't mind everyone knowing about our marriage. You are the one who wants to hide it.”
Aiden would actually feel happier if more people learned about their marriage. If possible, he even wanted to announce to the whole world that Anya was his, so that no one would dare approach her again. However, he respected Anya's decision to hide their relationship temporarily until she graduated from college.
